We are heading off in a while to witness and then celebrate the wedding of the son of Ken, my friend and bodyguard, and the Deckmistress. The Usual Suspects will be there in force, so it promises to be a memorable shindig. Among the attendees will be Doctor Doctor, the Team Physician (with Mrs. Doctor Doctor) and the Stardust Shrink, the latter spending the night at the House by the Parkway.

The Usual Suspects, the Team Doctor and the Stardust Shrink all in one place at the same time – I’d say we’re ready to rock.

UPDATE: The Wedding and the reception were excellent. There was plenty of merriment and adult beverage consumption. I can happily report that no one was injured in the process.

The following morning (Sunday), we attended a breakfast hosted by two of the Usual Suspects in honor of the bride and groom. They provided their guests with an array of delicious breakfast items that would rival that offered by a Las Vegas casino. Mimosas and Bloody Marys were also available for the treatment of those who may have needed a bit of the hair of the dog.

Did someone say vodka-containing adult beverages?

Yes, there were plenty of vodka-based cocktails, which meant that in the Usual Suspects’ tradition, the “breakfast” lasted approximately twelve hours. We returned home from the “breakfast” several hours after dark.
